eitl – Easy install of TeX Live

The script allows the easy install of a current TeX Live version over the net. It is tested with the current Linux versions of OpenSUSE and Ubuntu. The script:

looks for a fast server
downloads the install script
deletes an existing TeX Live version from Ubuntu (deb) or openSUSE (rpm)
extracts and runs the install script
installs a complete up-to-date TeX Live from tug.org
installs the non free fonts from tug.org which are not part of TeX Live, like arial, Luxi mono, etc.
installs the GUIs TeXmaker and TeXworks
creates files zzz-texlive.sh/csh for /etc/profile.d/

If no directory is specified, TeX Live will be installed in the home directory ~/texlive. For another directory, run the script with the directory name; e.g.:

./eitl.sh /usr/local/texlive

for some actions the script needs to be root. In such cases it asks for the root password.
